For over 100 years, Western Research Institute has been involved in cutting edge research in the field of chemistry.
Initially focused on energy (oil, coal…), the Institute has also developed skills covering advanced carbon-based materials for longer lasting roads and roofs (add link to AIRC page), non-energetic applications of fossil resources to find new ways to valorize oil and coal (add link to Advanced Carbon Materials page), environmental research on waste management and circular economy (add link to Waste Re-engineering Initiative (Circular Economy) in RenuMAT page), and we are just starting to be involved in critical minerals recovery. Please have a look at our latest Annual Report (add link to last Annual report) to know more about our activity.
All of these projects contribute to making a better life and a better environment for Wyoming, the USA and the World.
Donating to WRI will help us:
- Maintain a competitive workforce and retain high-level technician and scientist jobs in Southern Wyoming,
- Improve our research tools and facilities to remain at the forefront of international chemical research,
- Train interns and students and help them become the leaders of the future.
The whole team at WRI thanks you for your help!
